Answer:

b. $40.

Explanation:

We select the lower of each of the following for reporting purposes.

Cost = $45

Replacement cost = $43

Neat realizable value = Selling price - disposal and completion costs

NRV = 50 - 10 = $40

We use lower of the values to take into account obsolete inventory or deterioration of inventory and as such the lowest of NRV is used for recording purposes.

Hope that helps.
